Swedish/British co-production of a young Swedish boxer who is framed
and forced into an inside agent mission in the '80s continuing cold war
in 'neutral' Sweden. Based on a fairly successful novel by Swedish
writer Harry Kullman, it fails on most accounts. Cheap production
values not used to their advantage plus clumsy, deftless direction sink
this agent thriller, despite some tight suspense scenes... And as a
native Swede, hearing my compatriot actors spouting really dodgy
English accents just doesn't help much. To be honest, I haven't seen it
since its release year, so I might enjoy it more on a re-watch to dig
it on a campy, '80s nostalgia level!
